In order to elucidate the underlying mechanisms involved in the biosorption of metal ions, potentiometric titrations, complexation studies, and time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy… (More)

The effects of pH, ionic strength, and temperature on sorption of Eu(III) on attapulgite were investigated in the presence and absence of fulvic acid (FA) and humic acid (HA). The results indicated… (More)

The quantitative description of the interactions of uranium with blood serum components is of high relevance for a rational design of molecules suitable for in vivo chelation of uranium. We have… (More)

Different possible options were investigated to combine an apatitic calcium phosphate cement with gallium ions, known as bone resorption inhibitors. Gallium can be either chemisorbed onto… (More)

A combined experimental and theoretical approach is used to define astatine (At) speciation in acidic aqueous solution and to answer the two main questions raised from literature data: does At(0)… (More)

The aim of the present work was to quantify accessible porosities for iodide and for a water tracer (HTO) on water-saturated compacted clay samples (illite, montmorillonite and MX-80 bentonite) and… (More)
